Really good food that catered for dairy allergy and also vegan. The rainbow wrap was very nice and would highly recommend the peanut butter cookies

A popular local cafe, highly recommend the flapjacks (huge!). Accept both card and cash. Takeaway coffees seemed a popular order for the locals. Staff were efficient and friendly. Regularly pop in here when visiting Dorset.

Went there today with my mum and dad, mum said her brie, bacon and cranberry baguette was the BEST she has ever had with lovely warm brie (and that woman has tried many). Dad had the roast beef and horseradish baguette and also said it was a 10/10. Also got a tuna baguette which was fab, could’ve had a pinch more mayo but great nonetheless! Friendly service with good value for money. Cakes looked good too! Could put a couple of small tables outside but no complaints

Love the food here. I had the frittata with 3 salads, one was curry chickpea and cauliflower one was pea and broad bean and one a lentil salad. The better half had the rainbow wrap. All very fresh, colourful and delicious, couldn’t take a picture as we devoured it all, so took a picture of the board outside. It’s market day on Wednesday and Saturday and you can sit outside in Bucky doo square and there is sometimes live music - highly recommend!!
